We stopped at your marina in Spanish for the first time last summer. Very nice place. We got fuel, did laundry, and even got a short ride into town to replenish groceries, before anchoring at several spots in the Whalesback Channel. Must be nice to have some of the best Great Lakes Cruising so...

Bobby Mac's docks will not suit your boat. Browns only has a few spots that your boat would fit into and you'd need good timing to get one of those. Brownie's on the Lake in St. Clair shores is a nice spot and normally has plenty of room on the wall to dock. There is also Tin Fish in St. Clair...

You could always have a couple boats stop in St. Clair, one in Algonac, and a couple at Port Huron. Desmonds for sure is a convenient "last stop" before the lake stop. We are heading back to North Channel in mid July (after a hiatus of 7 long years) and were going to stop at PH for gas or...

St. Clair is a good fuel stop. Have to go thru draw bridge on the half hour. And Algonac (Algonac Harbour Club) is a good alternative as well.

Mary Ann Cove is our favorite anchorage (besides the Benjamins'). Sum Escape you may recognize the Cruisers rafted off of us here.... Rich and Paula and clan from Andiamo.

North Channel is for sure our favorite destination. We have some info you may find useful for planning on our website, complete with log, charts, video, etc. Have a great time!!! http://www.timandgina.net/cruise06_prologue.htm (2006 trip) http://www.timandgina.net/cruise04_logindex.htm...

Love that area. Did trips in 2004 and 2006 www.timandgina.net http://www.timandgina.net/cruise06_prologue.htm

You might try St. Clair. Less than two hours from Lake St. Clair. The state harbor will take you by shuttle van just a short road trip across the river to the course. Think the name is Pine Shores. In pretty good shape. Nine holes.

Actually I believe it will be the Thunderbirds performing at the Air Show for 2009. Still a great show.

The Tick Tock is back in business... speaking of beautiful boats, that JAWS is awesome! Check out the MacRayYachtClub.org website or stop by @ 132 Amber for more info.

Website of Tick Tock You Tube site although we just "retired" our Sea Ray, we will always be a Sea Ray owners at heart. Our sites truly show our Sea Ray lifestyle, and maybe give others some inspiration to share their boating world as well.

Miller in well known in the area for quality and workmanship. They did our camper top on the SeaRay. For canvas repair, I've had good luck with Custom Boat Top in St. Clair, a nice quality easy to deal with "mom and pop" shop.

You tried the dealer? I got several of mine a 1998 they had on the shelf.

I had a claim with them last year and was treated promptly and fairly. It was my first and only claim experience and considering it was several $$$, I was pleased with the no-big red tape experience.

Eric - Wow, you covered some ground (water) in those five days! I agree, the Ports Cruising Guide is probably the best reference material - it has the photos, routes, and information needed. And the Well Favored Passage makes for great reading and help with it's chart drawings. Another great...
